As students are head back to school, the Texarkana Texas Police Department is reminding drivers to be extra cautious and watch for school buses on local roadways. With buses picking up and dropping off students throughout the day, drivers are required by Texas and Arkansas law to stop whenever a school bus is stopped with its red lights flashing. As the new school year begins, Texarkana Police are encouraging everyone to slow down, stay alert, and pay close attention in school zones and along bus routes.
